Best thing for anyone to do is plead, Not Guilty, that brings the prosecution, to prove the guilt. Now, with that said, most will do a plead agreement to be in his favor, no matter the cost, at the time.

If he plead "not guilty" he would have been fried and maybe gotten life and a cell next to Hussain. With a deal He might get to see the Sun one day. The may have also made a deal not to house him in Leavenworth. If they sent him there it would be Isolation with 30 mins out doors a week. They would not be able to put him in Gen. Pop because as a traitor he would get shanked for sure

He did admit that he knew that he would most likely be killed along with his unit members in any ambush, and didn't care. However, the guilty plea is just to go through the motions.

Also since when are Military members tried by civilian courts? When did this start?

He is being held in the same jail where Ghislane Maxwell is being held, and Jeffery Epstein was being held before being suicided. Things that make you say hhhhmmmmm....

SSG Nathan Stryker - At my first duty station a Soldier as convicted in Arizona court and Courts Marshal. His convictions were to be run concurrent...meaning he would do his time in State Prison then upon "release be sent to Leavenworth " to serve Military Time. He was held in Maracopa County by Sheriff Joe

SSG (Join to see) - That sounds more like Consecutive Sentencing. Concurrent Sentencing is when two or more sentences are served at the same time.

The US military is the only agency (I think it's the only one) that has the right to double jeopardy. You can be tried by both civilian and military courts for the same crime. However the reason for him being tried in a civilian court could be because of how severe the crime could have been. I think it follows a similar reasoning with how drug offenses are charged. based on how much is the with of drugs will determine if it's city, county, state, or federal. Maybe it's the same concept.
